Subject: Plastic surgery help, please?

My doc is saying that the patient has a lesion on her left upper forehead at the s/l "trickle" junction.  I know "trich-" or "tricho-" has to do with hair, but the only thing I found was a single reference online to a "Pre-trichal" (around a hair follicle) reference in a file I did not want to open and save to my computer.   Stedman's has a "pretrichial", but doctor definitely says "trickle"(phonetically) with no "pre".  Any thoughts?  Thanks for your help!

This is a dictator new on staff--deep Southern accent, fast talker.  Sent this guy to QA the first time I got him, but no response yet.  He's surgically treating burns.


#1 Surgical preparation was carried out using a #10 blade as well as a S/L Norson/Norrison.


#2 The area of cadaver skin was covered with S/L Bridobel, Acticoat and sterile dressing. 


I've looked in all my Stedman references, Vera Pyle, as well as Google.  Nothing has come up.  Hope you might have these terms written in somewhere.  If you know your reference source, please state.  Thanks.

Her only complaints are those related to her gynecologic operation but she thinks these are better. Her abdomen is nice and flat and smooth. She has nice midline s/l raw-fay. There was some ends of sutures snipped off but otherwise she is doing very well.


Besides the identifying info, this is all that is in the report so it does not give much to go on.
